In the rainy land of the "Dream City" within its borders, there is a casino called "Rain Banquet", with extremely luxurious interior decoration.
This is the place where Qiwuhai Crocodile is located all year round.
Countless instructions were conveyed from here, remotely controlling the Baroque Works.
And no one in the entire Baroque Works knew his true identity.
On the bright side, he is still a hero of this country, loved and sought after by the people.
It's a bit too ironic for a pirate to have such treatment.
This is why even knowing that there is a Shichibukai in this country, there are still so many pirates like Sister Xiang trying to invade this country and challenge Crocodile!
Not only for the sake of fame and fortune, but also because he felt that he was nothing more than that, and wanted to pull him down from that position and remove his hypocritical mask.
Unfortunately, so far, no one has succeeded.
Even though Crocodile's strength has stagnated for a long time due to some reasons, and he began to pursue another illusory power, the "King of the Desert" is not something that cats and dogs can touch.
"Beihai, Don Quixote family, Doflamingo... Lieutenant General Crane?"
Crocodile was smoking a cigar, looking at the intelligence.
Outside, the banana crocodiles he raised were eating ferociously, and among them was Miss.Monday, who died with regret.
After all, for him, there is no need for a guy who has lost his use value to continue to survive.
"Already know who I am?"
Crocodile suddenly showed a fierce look on his face, as if he already had murderous intentions.
For some forces with strong intelligence capabilities, it is not as difficult as imagined to confirm who is behind the Baroque Work Agency through those clues.
After all, many things will leave traces when they are done, and these traces will eventually point in one direction.
Even in Baroque Works, no one has guessed who the president is, but those who can't control their mouths are all dead.
The rest are naturally all dumb who don't know.
And for the pompous Crocodile, Doflamingo's bounty of more than 300 million won't scare him at all.
He even dared to challenge Whitebeard, so what bounty would he care about?
Those are all things the navy uses to fool people!
The only function is to let him exchange money.
On the contrary, the intelligence mentioned Lieutenant General Crane who had been hunting Doflamingo all the time, which made Crocodile even more concerned.
He has already started to implement that plan, he really doesn't want to attract the attention of the navy, he just wants to proceed in a low-key manner.
Otherwise, with his original temper, he would have committed suicide long ago.
"Those who do big business don't like the leftovers in my bowl?"
"That's fine, then wait until you start a big business, and I'll take them all away!"
Crocodile sneered and threw all the information into the brazier.
He was going to stand still for now, and when the opponent came to the Great Route from Beihai, as long as General He stopped staring at this group of people, he would immediately attack and seize everything from the opponent!
. . . . . . . .
At the same time, a major event happened in Beihai.
Dies Barreiros, former colonel of the Navy branch and now a pirate, has exhausted his luck in ten lifetimes. While robbing a merchant ship, he accidentally discovered a fruit with a strange shape.
The well-informed Dies Barreiros immediately recognized it as a devil fruit!
And after consulting the devil fruit illustrated book, I was very pleasantly surprised to find that this red fruit like a peach heart turned out to be the legendary fruit of surgery? !
Now his eyes are full of endless greed.
Through his previous connections, he contacted the world government through the navy, and wanted to sell this extremely precious devil fruit to the Tianlong people!
So as to achieve overnight riches!
Soon, the news that the fruit of the operation was released again shocked countless big shots.
And the final selling price of this surgical fruit has also been finalized, the price is... 5 billion Berry! !
When his outrageous price like a lion's mouth was really accepted, Dies Barreiros was a little unconfident. After confirming it several times, he laughed wildly.
Then the two parties agreed on the specific time and place of the transaction, and everything was kept in absolute secrecy.
Afterwards, the World Government only notified the Marshal of the Warring States Period, asking him to send warships from the Navy Headquarters to the North Sea to complete this transaction, and must ensure the safety of the surgical results.
It's just that what Dies Barreiros didn't know was that his pirate group also hid the intelligence personnel of the Don Quixote family.
And the intelligence officer thought of a way to pass on the information in the first place.
Then, like everyone else, his personal freedom was restricted, waiting for the transaction to be completed.
And when this information reached Doflamingo, his first reaction was, come back? !
It's not surprising that he had such a reaction. It's true that he was a little frightened by He's tricks that time.
But when he considered this secret information over and over again, he felt that it might not be what he thought...
Is it true this time?
Chapter 264 Everything Moves (3/4 Guaranteed, Please Subscribe!)
On this day, it was rare for Abel to take a vacation for himself and drink afternoon tea leisurely.
Then I received a call from Doflamingo.
To be honest, he was quite surprised to receive the contact from the other party at this time.
But what surprised him even more was the back.
"Abel, let's put aside the matter of the great route, and go back to Beihai as soon as possible. There is news of the fruit of the operation."
Doflamingo's first sentence is full of information!
Abel asked in surprise: "Has the news been confirmed? It won't happen again like last time, will it?"
"Now we are just waiting for the navy to **** the World Government to come and trade."
Doflamingo said in a deep voice, "The rest of the family are still inquiring about the seller's hiding place and the specific transaction time. We must rush to grab this fruit of the operation before the transaction. By then, your and Luo's illnesses will all be gone." It can be cured."
Abel was unmoved, but still pretended to be excited, "Okay, I'll be back now. By the way, do you need to wait for Torrebol to come?"
"Torrepol has other important things to do, don't wait for him."
This answer made Abel feel a little bit wrong, but he didn't think too much about it. In fact, one more person and one less person would not have much impact.
Then I heard Doflamingo change the subject and said: "According to the original rules and your contribution to the family during this period, this fruit of the operation should be your turn to eat, but I think this fruit If you can't fully realize your own potential, what really suits you should be the kind of devil fruit that brings a huge bonus to the battle."
"So I thought about it, and decided to give the fruit of the operation to Corazon to eat, and then let Corazon cure you and Luo's lead disease."
"In this way, both of you will have no worries, and you can freely choose your favorite devil fruit ability, instead of being limited to this one surgical fruit, what do you think?"
How do I feel about love, how about it!
Abel started rolling his eyes.
It's not the first time Doflamingo has done things like assigning a devil fruit before he got it, and he hasn't failed anyway.
Obviously, this fruit of surgery has been regarded as his own.
The reason for not letting him eat it, and letting Corazon eat it, is not at all what Doflamingo said.
Mainly because Corazon is his younger brother!
Doflamingo is more confident that Corazon, who ate the fruit of the operation, will perform the "unageing operation" on himself in the future, so as to obtain eternal life!
That's the point!
At the same time, he was also worried that if Abel ate the fruit of the operation, would he grow beyond his control in the future.
These things, Abel's heart is like a mirror.
It's a pity that what Doflamingo doesn't know is that his own brother has not only eaten a devil fruit long ago, but is also an undercover spy sent by the navy.
Therefore, it is destined to miss the fruit of this operation.
"I have no objection, anyway, this devil fruit, just listening to the name is not harmful."
When it comes to pretending to be stupid, Abel is also a good hand.
Doflamingo noticed nothing else, and was even glad he thought so.
Then Abel talked about the Baroque Works.
Doflamingo didn't care at all, or in other words, all his thoughts are now on the fruit of the operation, even if the sand crocodile came in person, he wouldn't bother to answer.
He just didn't want to have conflicts for no reason, and he wasn't afraid of anyone.
After finishing the call, Abel immediately explained everything after he left, and then took Baby-5 to prepare to return to Beihai to witness Luo's new life.
Speaking of which, they haven't seen each other for a year.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
A few days later, Doflamingo, who finally identified the location of the group selling the fruits of surgery, finally contacted Corazon, who had disappeared for a long time.
After telling Corazon the "good news" of giving him the fruit of the operation, the two agreed on a time and place to meet.
Don't ask Corazon how a 'dumb' can communicate with a phone bug, he can tap something like Morse code with his hands.
Afterwards, Corazon was surprised and delighted, and quickly contacted Marshal Warring States again.
As a result, when Warring States heard that even Corazon knew about the fruit of the operation, he was shocked!
Obviously this matter is kept in absolute secrecy, and it is impossible to spread it out.
After he dispatched the warship, he didn't even notify the crane in the North Sea.
But if the Don Quixote family intervenes in this way, great changes will happen.
After repeatedly warning Corazon not to intervene in this matter, Sengoku hastily contacted Crane, hoping to use Crane's hand to stop Doflamingo and even arrest the entire Don Quixote family.
No one knows exactly what Warring States and Crane talked about.
All he knew was that after the contact was over, Crane sighed, and then began to straighten out the staff, ready to go.
Corazon was already very excited after getting the authenticity confirmation from the Marshal of the Warring States Period.
"Luo, now your illness is finally cured!"
"Surgery fruit can cure all diseases, and it is the most suitable devil fruit for you."
Seeing Corazon's happy and excited look, Luo hesitated, "But didn't Brother Doflaming tell you to eat it? It's the same for you..."
"It's different. Each person can only eat one devil fruit. If you eat the second one, you will die."
"And I have already eaten the fruit of silence."
"So you understand, we can't go back. If Dover knows that I betrayed him, he will definitely not let me go."
Corazon looked a little heavy.
"But it doesn't matter, as long as we rush in front of everyone, **** the fruit of the operation and eat it for you, then we can escape far away and never come back."
"But... what about Abel? If I eat the fruit of the operation and escape, he will die too."
What Luo said suddenly made Corazon stunned, because he had been thinking for Luo all the time, but ignored another teenager who had the same experience.
And that bond between Abel and Lo.
"It's okay, we can secretly find a chance to come back when the time comes, and you come to help him cure his poisonous disease, won't that be enough?"
"Well, that's right."
Luo knew that Corazon said it so lightly on purpose, so that he would not have a psychological burden.
So he didn't say anything more.
It's just that he has already made a decision in his heart.
So the two rowed the boat and began to struggle through the storm, as if this was the last darkness before dawn.
And a bright future awaits them.
